This is especially significant in the case of vehicles with a Euro 5 or Euro 6 smart alternator, which often supplies too low charging voltage even when the engine is running or when extended cable lengths, as is often the case in boats and RVs, lead to voltage drops. In such scenarios, precise and controlled charging is imperative to fully charge the service battery while protecting the starter\/input battery from discharge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBluetooth Smart Enabled\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAny Bluetooth-enabled smartphone, tablet, or other device can be used to monitor, change settings, and update the charger when new software features become available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstant Readout: The VictronConnect App can display key data, including warnings and alarms, on the device list page without the need to connect to the product\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFully programmable\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery charge algorithm (configurable) or fixed output.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmart Alternator Compatibility: engine running detection mechanism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdaptive 3-Stage Charge Algorithm: Bulk  Absorption  Float\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor lead-acid batteries, it is important that during shallow discharges the absorption time is kept short to prevent overcharging of the battery.

It functions as both a battery charger and a constant voltage power supply, making it suitable for applications involving Euro 5 or Euro 6 smart alternators that often supply low charging voltages or experience voltage drops over long cable runs. The device ensures precise, controlled charging to fully recharge service batteries while safeguarding the starter or input batteries from discharge, thereby enhancing overall electrical system reliability. Its wide input voltage range of 8-17 V allows it to operate effectively across different vehicle electrical systems, maintaining consistent output under varying conditions. The built-in engine shutdown detection feature automatically halts the converter when the engine is off, preventing unnecessary drain on the starter battery and ensuring optimal power usage. The Orion-TR Smart supports a fully programmable charge algorithm, adaptable to lead-acid and lithium batteries, with a default three-stage charging process (bulk, absorption, float) that automatically adjusts based on battery type and depth of discharge. This intelligent charging process optimizes battery health and longevity, with the absorption time automatically increasing after deep discharges for complete recharging in lead-acid batteries. For lithium batteries, the absorption time remains fixed at two hours, or the user can choose a fixed output voltage for simplified operation. Connectivity via Bluetooth enables remote monitoring and configuration through the VictronConnect app, offering instant readouts and updates without direct physical access. The device's features include a remote On\/Off switch, galvanic isolation of 200 VDC, and the capacity to be paralleled with an unlimited number of units to increase current capacity. Its robust construction incorporates high temperature protection, with output current reducing at elevated temperatures to prevent damage, and an IP43 protection rating when installed correctly. The durable screw terminal connections facilitate straightforward installation without special tools, and the device complies with relevant safety and emission standards such as EN 60950 and EN 61000-6 series. Compact and lightweight, the Orion-TR Smart is an ideal solution for maintaining reliable power in modern vehicles with smart alternators, ensuring efficient battery management and system protection in various mobile environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eWide input voltage range of 8-17 V for versatile operation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBluetooth Smart enabled for remote monitoring, configuration, and updates\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFully programmable charge algorithm or fixed output\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAdaptive three-stage charging (Bulk, Absorption, Float) for lead-acid batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFixed absorption time of 2 hours for lithium batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAutomatic engine shutdown detection to prevent unnecessary discharge\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eRemote On\/Off switch support for flexible control\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCan be paralleled with unlimited units to increase output current\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in high temperature protection with output current derating\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eRobust IP43 protection rating with screw terminal connections\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eGalvanic isolation of 200 VDC between input, output, and case\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompliance with safety and emission standards including EN 60950 and EN 61000-6 series\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44528906469418,"sku":"84224","price":159.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/2285\/8794\/files\/84224XL.jpg?v=1783050800","url":"https:\/\/atticusgoods.com\/products\/victron-energy-orion-tr-smart-12-12-18a-220w-isolated-dc-dc-charger-and-power-supply","provider":"Atticus Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
